How Our Fireplaces Add Character & Elevate Sustainability in Bedford

Bedford itself is named after a Saxon chief called Beda, whose followers settled along the River Ouse. Beda operated a crossing point on the river, and today one of its famous landmarks – lit up beautifully along the embankment – is Castle Mound. Formerly known as Bedford Castle, it is said to have been constructed after the Norman Conquest in 1066. Steeped in history, the charm and character of the town and the whole of Bedfordshire is clear to see in the many homes across the region.

From the town and the beloved Castle Quarter to the surrounding villages of Ampthill, Barton, Brickhill, Bromham, Cardington, Clapham, Flitwick, Goldington, Great Barford, Kempston, Oakley, Sandy, Shefford, Shortstown, Wootton, and Willington; homeowners in Bedfordshire are often close to modern amenities and also the stunning rolling countryside. If you’re fortunate enough to own a characterful home in Bedfordshire, you may be looking to invest in a classic woodburner or fireplace. Even for new properties, our showroom staff can meet your needs. From contemporary stone mantels to sleek stoves and media wall fires, we cover all types of fireplaces. 

At present, Bedford Borough Council are focusing on driving resource efficiencies and cost savings for residents and businesses. There are several strands to this vision, including being more resilient against energy prices, protecting our surrounding environment, empowering people, planning for the future and ultimately improving quality of life. At Capital Fireplaces, we take sustainability seriously. Our Eco Stoves significantly improve emissions when compared to current stoves on the market or to open fires. At Capital, we were one of the first companies to have stoves that were already achieving the necessary standards before the latest regulations came into play.

Just yourself, and perhaps any snaps of your existing fireplace (if you have one). With just several photos of your current setup, we can help you narrow down the ideal solution for your home, answering any questions you have along the way. Our dedicated showroom team will also run through your options, as well as demonstrate some of the products we have on display.

Planning permission requirements will vary based on factors such as the type of property you own, where it’s based in Bedford, and of course, the specific alterations or additions being made. For example, you won’t need planning permission to build a media wall in your living room unless you live in a listed building or a conservation area. For more traditional fireplaces and log burners, in most cases, planning permission is not required, unless you are looking to construct a new chimney stack. Essentially, there’s no hard and fast answer to this question – it’s always best to check with the local planning authority if you are not sure.
